Dresses and fish


Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh.
-- W. H. Auden


Not the best pictures but . . . Sarah needed a dress for a wedding. She found one but wouldn't model it for me. We also found these two dresses for Lindsey for homecoming and winter formal. The black one actually has ruffles that run up and down the dress. She already has jewelry and shoes to go with it.














The cream dress is actually very pretty. It has a "balloon" bottom, which I generally don't like nor does Lindsey. However, she put this on and all three of us decided that when you wear a size 1, a balloon dress is okay! LOL.















A good friend of my family moved from Cleveland to Texas this past January.

Yesterday, we received a box from Frontgate which contained two of these fish. They are battery operated "blow fish." Even though it was soon to be Zachariah's bedtime, we added the batteries and went back out to the pool. He had a blast.















These are pretty awesome things and he just had such a great time.
By the way, he has actually gained weight this summer. Lots of sunshine and he has been eating like a horse . . . well maybe a very small horse, but substantially more than he usually does. He had been to the endocronologist earlier this summer and weighed 38 pounds (no weight gain for three years) but grew 2 inches (the first time in two years) up to 45 inches. Yesterday, he weighed 41.5 pounds and is 46 inches. Woo hoo . . . and he doesn't look like a war orphan any more either!

The dresses look pretty on her from what I can see! A size 1 - yup, I could get into that LOL. My granddaughter had to return her size 2 jeans for a size 1. Now I was pretty thin when I was young - but never a size 1! I didn't even know they made a size 1.
